Chewy Triple Ginger Cookies

Make ahead recipe
A pile of Triple Ginger Cookies

If you love ginger and you are not afraid of a little spice, this cookie recipe is for you! It is a triple threat…fresh ginger, powdered ginger and crystalized ginger make these Chewy Triple Ginger Cookies the perfect sweet and spicy treat.

I love them with a cappuccino in the morning, a cup of strong Earl Grey in the afternoon or on their own when I’m craving a little dessert in the evening.

These little soft and chewy triple ginger cookies contain some other interesting ingredients such as freshly ground black pepper which adds additional spiciness, along with dried apricots lending the perfect chewy morsels to the cookie.

This recipe comes from a great dessert cookbook entitled “sugar & spice” by Samantha Seneviratne.
